I signed up for KVS Tool, but haven't yet received my permanent registration code (only got the temp one, and it's expired).

Great! Any way you can show 9W availability? Scrape their site?

Not at this time, as 9W requires a sufficient mileage balance in its FFP for Award Availability searches.

They changed that requirement recently.

That is just a reward mileage calculator page. It does not show Award Availability.

The current 9W requirement is a minimum of 3500 miles + 2 activities.

The availability shown on that page matches up to what partners can book, IME.

I just checked. They have availability for the 27FEB but AA/UA don't see it. But what is interesting is that for 23FEB they show availability and AA can see it but UA can't. It seems that UA does not see ANY 9W availability.

As mentioned previously, that page does not display actual Award Availability (or even flight numbers).
Any matches that you may have experienced are largely co-incidental.

So why do they on some days availability and on some days not?

The [Awards/EY] Method continues to function normally.

What are your search parameters?

If I'd like to request access from a different computer, do I need to specifically send the request from the new one?

You can submit the request from anywhere, as long as you know the new machine's System Code.
